Hey there!

The answer to your question is "n = -3"

First, we can start by writing the equation as it says. "3 times a number" represents a number times 3, or "3n"

3n

Next, "5 more" represents addition, so "+ 5"

3n + 5

Finally, "is -4" means it is equal to -4, so "= -4"

3n + 5 = -4

Now that we have our equation, we can solve:

3n + 5 = -4

First, we subtract "5" from both sides of the equal sign:

3n = -9

Lastly, we divide both sides by "3".

n = -3

Have a terrificly amazing day!
